Pop star Sabrina Carpenter lands in Fortnite for Fortnite Festival Season 8, launching April 8 with loads of in-game cosmetics, jam tracks, and emotes.
Epic Games loves to blur the lines between gaming and music, and Fortnite’s Sabrina Carpenter debut is no exception. Fortnite Festival Season 8 launches on April 8, complete with two Sabrina Carpenter outfits, two new emotes, three jam tracks, and lots of sparkly accessories.
Players can access the main Sabrina Carpenter outfit through the Season 8 Festival Pass Premium Track, which costs 1,400 V-Bucks, or by unlocking it through Fortnite Crew membership. The outfit features a yellow babydoll dress inspired by Sabrina’s “Emails I Can’t Send Tour” wardrobe — a collaboration with Victoria’s Secret and the singer’s stylist, Jared Ellner. A second outfit, a bodysuit, is unlockable as players progress through the Festival Pass.
Yet another version of Sabrina, “Tour-Ready Sabrina Carpenter,” will be available in the Fortnite Item Shop throughout Season 8. This outfit offers high fashion with “edgier” details, giving fans even more variety in showing off their love for the star.
Gear includes the SC Electric Guitar and SC Sparkly Guitar, both of which have unlockable styles. There’s a mic-themed backbling, custom contrails that leave a shimmer when characters skydive, and signature jam tracks, including “Nonsense,” “Feather,” and “Please Please Please.” These items, as well as the Tour-Ready outfit and accessories, can be purchased starting on April 9.
Sabrina herself called her Fortnite persona “shockingly accurate,” as the avatar is noticeably “short and sweet” in stature, just like the pop star. While some devoted Fortnite fans have been critical of just how many musicians the game has added, even more fans are thrilled at the variety of releases. Many fans on social media have admitted to downloading Fortnite this week just to be ready to play as Sabrina.
The entire Sabrina Carpenter collection launches on April 9, just a day after the official Season 8 launch.

Listen to a great Housy EP that just came out.
EDMTunes, our brand, includes both “Dance” and “Tunes” in its name. For that reason, it should come as no surprise that we have a sweet tooth for anything that makes us get out of our chairs and move about. And we’ve stumbled across something that’s right down our alley: check out the latest from Tony y Not.
German spinner and music producer Tony y Not is carving a space for her, with a signature, often daring mix of House, Disco, and Acid Techno. Growing to be a global artist-to-watch in a short period of time, she’s graced the decks at some of the world’s most notable spots, including ADE, Brooklyn Mirage, fabric, Fusion Festival, and Hï.
Have You Lost Your Mind?
Tony y Not’s latest release goes right in line with the sound many know her for: minimalistic, yet full of life. Have You Lost Your Mind? is the name of the title track — from which the EP bears its name — of a double A sider of House goodies. Both tunes showcase artistic evolution and innovative outlook, coming from the young artist.
Ethereal, floaty, yet also highly groovy, the title track shines with a clean sound that pairs the best Disco one-hits, tons of subtle 303s, and seventh-House short plucks that can only add to the spiky percussion lines underneath. Look, I don’t tend to play this kind of House, but I’m stealing it to sneak it in the middle of my more energetic Prog House sets. It’s just so good.
While on the flipside, lies the classic-sounding ‘Deep Don’t Stop’. This is machine-programmed bliss. Drum machine percussion, placed in such a way that it fills the space enough while still leaving room to breathe, and for little core elements to take centre stage, such as the “Deep don’t stop” sample I’m sure all of us are familiar with, at least to a degree. Lovely.

Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is right around the corner, and tickets are still available — some for less than face value.
The annual Coachella festival is almost here, and would-be attendees still have opportunities to snag tickets. Like last year, tickets for the 2025 edition haven’t sold quickly, and tickets for Weekend 2 are still available at the time of writing.
In previous years, tickets for both weekends sold out within hours or sometimes days. If you’re still hoping to get tickets, you might even be able to secure them for less than face value. Resellers on StubHub and Vivid Seats have been offering some passes for as little as half of the original price, but those offers were snapped up quickly.
Coachella 2025 takes place over two weekends: April 11 to 13, and April 18 to 20. Original tickets are sold per weekend, but some verified resellers have day passes available for both. Standard original general admission tickets started at $649 for Weekend 1 and are still available starting at $599 for Weekend 2. On StubHub, resale tickets have gone for as little as $246, while Vivid Seats runs quite a bit steeper, starting at $724.
Original VIP tickets are still available for both weekends, with packages starting at $1,399 for the first weekend and $1,199 for the second. Camping passes and parking passes are still available on Coachella’s website and from verified resellers, though the official site offers more options for these and other add-ons, such as shuttle passes and locker access.
This year, Lady Gaga, Green Day, Post Malone, and Travis Scott headline the festival. Other scheduled performances include Missy Elliott, GloRilla, Charli XCX, Misfits, T-Pain, Jimmy Eat World, Megan Thee Stallion, Lisa, Jennie, Beabadoobee, and many more. Last-minute additions to the lineup include Ed Sheeran and Weezer, since several artists (FKA twigs, Anitta, Gel) were forced to back out due to various circumstances.

Azzecca, Chicago’s acid/hi-energy House/dark dance DJ & producer and now an international sensation spearheading the new spacey cosmic sound, drops single ‘Dance Of The Desert’ on Higher Ground.
‘Dance Of The Desert’ 
‘Dance Of The Desert’ follows her recent massive hit ‘Holding Back’ on Three Six Zero Recordings, championed by BBC Radio royalty. Pete Tong, Danny Howard, and Sarah Story all praised the track. Moreover, it was an Arielle Free “Big Whoppa”. Such accolades are incessant these days, as her hot mix of melodic cuts, acid-laced jams, and hypnotic heaters with that signature Azzecca edge become cosmic in more ways than one.
The track is a mystical explosion. The stuttering vocals, alongside the funky string arrangements, boost the groove to its maximum potential. The upbeat percussion and the overall sense of heat in the track give it a special sound. That is quintessential Azzecca, a sound that we love and look forward to even more now.
COSIMEA
Azzecca’s events focus on inclusivity, creating a safe space for all communities to party. Cosimea will tour the US this year after launching at Spybar last year, including The Ruins, NYC (18 July, lineup TBA), Space 550, SF (7 June w. Kim Ann Foxman, AIDA), It’ll Do Dallas (19 July w. Alinka, Red Eye) and TV Lounge Detroit. Previous artists that participated in the event include salute, X CLUB., Annicka, Jayah, and Shaun J. Wright.

Anyma joins forces with iconic rapper, Yeat to release their new single ‘Work‘. The two debuted ‘Work’ for the first time during a live performance at The Sphere in Las Vegas in front of thousands of fans building massive hype up until today. This performance marked the first time a rapper has performed at this iconic venue. This is unsurprising since Anyma is known for leading the race in visual and performance expectations. ‘Work’ is yet another track that radiates this energy from the forever-inspiring DJ.
‘Work’
Anyma’s ‘Work’ starts with a classic Anyma electro synth that is quickly emphasized with a heavy drum groove, bass synth, and Yeat’s powerful low vocals. Altogether, these elements build up to a drop that consists of a bass-heavy rhythm and “work” chorus. The vocals in this drop radiate space with beautifully constructed reverb and mixing techniques. After, a spacious breakdown fills the track and gives listeners an easy pallet cleanser before the last drop. In the end, the final drop carries similar energy to the first and adds a melodic and arpeggiated synth.

Anyma’s New Album “The End of Genesys“
In the wake of Anyma’s 12-date residency at The Sphere, the first electronic residency at the venue, he is releasing single after single leading up to his new album, “The End of Genesys.” This new discography features collaborations with artists such as Grimes, FKA Twigs, 070 Shake, Luke Steele of Empire of the Sun, and more. Already, ‘Angel In The Dark,’ ‘Hypnotized‘ with Ellie Goulding, ‘Voices In My Head‘ with Argy and Son of Son, and ‘Neverland‘ with Baset are out and ready for your ears. Collectively, this whole album will be released on May 23rd, 2025.
Official Visualiser Music Video
The amount of work Anyma puts into each release is not limited to his musical production. Each track usually receives a visual identity as well for his notable live performances. For Example, ‘Welcome To The Opera‘ by Anyma and Grimes has a special visual where Anyma’s Cyborg takes on the identity of Grimes who is trying to get out of the glass box it seems to be trapped in. Now, ‘Work’ has its own visual sensation as well and is already on YouTube. The single scene video radiates the darker energy the new Anyma single brings to his tracklist. The camera circles rapper Yeat and Anyma back to back with intriguing movements and facial expressions. Also, ‘Yeat’ adds an exceptional twist by wearing a dune-like regulator.

Genre-bending electronic music artist Subtronics is gearing up for an exciting new chapter by announcing his latest EP, Fibonacci Part 1: Oblivion. The EP has arrived on April 4, 2025, through Cyclops Recordings. He shared this news at Miami’s Ultra Music Festival after an electrifying performance on March 28th, giving fans a sneak peek of several tracks, including the powerful ‘Final Breath’ featuring A Little Sound.
Subtronics is releasing the EP in two parts, with eight tracks in Part 1 designed to connect with fans during live shows, while Part 2 will offer a different listening experience. Continuing his exploration of mathematical themes from his previous albums, FRACTALS from 2022 and TESSARACT from last year, Subtronics uses the Fibonacci sequence as a metaphor throughout his work, with ‘Oblivion’ marking the beginning of a broader narrative.
Subtronics describes the production process behind the Fibonacci Part 1: Oblivion EP
Subtronics explains, “Part 1 of the EP conveys that all of reality, in its complexity and grandeur, originates from nature and the fundamental laws of the universe. It emphasizes the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio as intrinsic patterns that govern nature, not through divine intervention, but through physics. Building on themes of alternate dimensions and fractals, the Fibonacci spiral is presented as the foundational DNA of reality.”
Fans can catch Subtronics during his Las Vegas residency with Wynn Nightlife and at his fifth annual Cyclops Rocks event at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. As 2025 unfolds, he will headline major festivals around the world and expand his popular Cyclops event series. It’s a journey that promises to bring us all together through the power of music.

Fans of both Joris Voorn and YOTTO have been eagerly awaiting this moment. The much awaited collaboration ‘Seventeen’ has finally arrived. Featuring the beautiful vocals of Harry McVeigh, the frontman of the renowned UK rock band White Lies. This track promises to be a standout. Now available on Armada Music! We’d love to hear your thoughts.
‘Seventeen’
Yet another beautiful, melodic track from Joris Voorn’s upcoming album, ‘Seventeen’ is a collaboration with Finnish label Odd One Out boss YOTTO. Since their unforgettable back-to-back performance at Tomorrowland 2024, Joris and YOTTO have been inspired to craft a piece that embodies their extraordinary chemistry. Joris masterfully immerses listeners in melodic techno and evocative soundscapes, as brought out in tracks like ‘Ringo’ or ‘Dark Science.’ In ‘Seventeen,’ his signature touch is evident through rich, layered atmospherics. It has lush pads and intricate textures that create a cinematic and nostalgic ambiance. His skillful progression is compelling; the way the track gradually accumulates emotional depth mirrors his adept handling of tension and release in his solo work. The melancholic melodies resonate deeply, embodying classic Voorn, especially as their chords tug at the heartstrings.
YOTTO complements this with his distinctive deep, groove heavy style. It has imbued with an understated intensity evident in tracks like ‘The Owls,’ ‘Nova,’ or ‘Walls’. In this collaboration, the low end and rhythmic groove exhibit YOTTO’s masterful finesse. This has warm, rolling basslines that propel the track forward without overwhelming it. His expert use of space and dynamics ensures an immersive yet danceable experience. The clean, emotive drop—characteristic of YOTTO’s work—serves as a powerful anchor, driving the track’s energy.
What truly sets this collaboration apart is the way Joris and YOTTO unite their strengths; it transcends a simple mash-up. It feels like a compelling narrative that both artists are sharing. Joris infuses the track with an introspective and emotive essence, while YOTTO grounds it in a club ready, groove friendly foundation. Harry McVeigh’s vocals from White Lies act as a bridge between these two worlds. It imparts a timeless, dance ballad quality to the composition. Ultimately, this fusion represents a stunning blend of melodic techno and progressive house, infused with an indie heart—a remarkable union of visionary talents.
Joris Voorn’s Upcoming Album
Today, Joris is finalizing his forthcoming fifth artist album, set to make waves with its release on Spectrum/Armada this April. Fans are eagerly awaiting the confirmation of the release date. Following the successful launch of four successful singles ‘You & I,’ portraying the impressive vocals of Nathan Nicholson. The mesmerizing instrumental ‘Horizon’ ; the outstanding collaboration with Pig & Dan featuring LIVI, ‘Been There Before’ . Last his recent partnership with Jan Blomqvist, titled ‘Flora.’ With this album, Joris is poised to further solidify his reputation as a true pioneer of melodic techno and house, enticing audiences with his innovative sound and artistry.
Hope you enjoy ‘Seventeen’ as much as I do. Stay tuned to EDMTunes for all your new music updates.

Apple is keeping TikTok on the App Store as the forced-sale saga continues to unfold. Photo Credit: Solen Feyissa
Despite the absence of a confirmed deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations, Apple is reportedly keeping the app on its App Store – at least for the time being.
This latest development in the TikTok divestment saga follows strong indications of a sale agreement. Last week, just days ahead of the (already-extended) cutoff for ByteDance to find a buyer for TikTok U.S., VP Vance communicated that a purchase announcement could arrive before the weekend.
However, the situation changed on the heels of the White House’s major tariffs rollout. Soon thereafter, ByteDance (a piece of which belongs to the Chinese government) put the proposed deal on ice; the much-used video platform is undoubtedly factoring into trade and tariff talks.
The twist prompted another extension for the stateside TikTok ban, we reported. Said extension will run well into June – meaning no matter how the episode ultimately plays out, U.S.-based TikTokers won’t lose access overnight.
But what about TikTok’s presence on the App Store and the Play Store? As we learned earlier in the forced-sale fiasco, besides being unavailable to download, TikTok when booted from app marketplaces cannot deliver all-important updates to existing users.
When it comes to the App Store, it looks like TikTok will remain in place during the 75-day extension, Bloomberg reported. Though Apple has yet to comment publicly on the matter, the decision to leave TikTok in place reportedly arrived after AG Pam Bondi provided related legal “assurances.”
Those same assurances presumably reached Google as well; the company also has yet to weigh in on the matter with public remarks, but TikTok is still live on the Play Store.
Of course, in light of (among other things) the above-highlighted trade negotiations between the U.S. and China, it remains to be seen when and whether the TikTok deal will formally wrap. Nevertheless, we previously took an in-depth look at the possible ownership particulars, post-transaction timetable, and more.
In the bigger picture, TikTok’s U.S. fate is irrelevant to many in the music industry – though evidence and logic suggest that some would strongly prefer to see the app remain alive.
Separately, competitors including the revamped Triller, Instagram Reels, Snapchat, and YouTube Shorts are actively looking to capitalize on the TikTok uncertainty. And notably, these varied efforts aren’t confined to the short-form side. (Before the ban topic took center stage, TikTok itself had for a while been embracing longer videos, with YouTube essentially doing the opposite via Shorts.)
To name one current example, YouTube’s upcoming Coachella coverage will livestream performances via Shorts. That refers to “DJ sets” streamed “in your YouTube Shorts feed both weekends,” the platform said of the “vertical livestream.”

Fyre Festival 2.0 has dropped a press release to convince us that it is actually happening. The extensive Instagram post states they have been working directly with the government of Playa del Carmen (PDC) and their officials since March 5th. If you have been following this story the last few months, you would know the Mexican government had no idea about this festival prior to March. So that March 5th date is quite big for Billy and the success of this festival.
The revived festival is set to take place from May 30 to June 2 on Isla Mujeres, Quintana Roo, Mexico. The press release also provides various dates for major milestones, including on March 28th, when the PDC government shared official support of the festival on their Instagram. The post also shares various emails and documents showing Artist confirmations/invitations, permit authorizations, deposits, and the press conference.
It is a level of transparency we have never seen from a festival. Billy McFarland is certainly pulling out all the tricks to prove Fyre Festival 2’s legitimacy. Citing new management of the company, McFarland insists that this time will be different. While no artists have been confirmed, he claims he expects to book A-list performers in the coming months. He plans to have artists across “electronic, hip-hop, pop, and rock.”
This year’s festival will be capped at 2,000 attendees. Tickets can be found here with some insane packages ranging from $1,400 to $1.1 million.

Something wicked is coming to Red Rocks—again.
SVDDEN DEATH has announced his long-awaited return to the legendary Colorado venue with "The Valley of Darkness III," a two-night spectacle set for November 13-14, 2025. Red Rocks has long been a bucket-list venue, but in the hands of SVDDEN DEATH, it becomes a portal to the underworld.
Known for turning dubstep and bass music into a full-blown cinematic horror show, the DJ will be headline the first night as his alter ego, VOYD, before closing out performing as SVDDEN DEATH. The doubleheader marks the third installment of the series, and judging by the lineup, it may be the most chaotic yet.
Joining the fray are dubstep heavyweight Zomboy and electropunk star Alice Glass, whose genre-defying sounds are sure to add a surreal edge to the already menacing atmosphere. Each night promises heavy doses of visual madness, theatrical production and unrelenting sound design that fans of the darker side of bass music live for.
True to form, Red Rocks is shaping up as a must-visit in 2025 for fans of EDM. Dubstep icon Skrillex last week revealed a five-hour DJ set on May 13th and French electronic music superstar Madeon announced a landmark show on October 3rd. Meanwhile, Martin Garrix, who is widely considered the world's top DJ, is poised for his long-awaited debut at the legendary venue from October 23-24.
SVDDEN DEATH is launching a pre-sale for "The Valley of Darkness III" on Wednesday, April 9th at 10am MST with the code VALLEY. The general on-sale will then take place at the same time on Friday, April 11th.

Denmark-born, LA-based producer MORTEN returns to Insomniac Records with his sophomore single, “Portrait.”
This melodic house and techno gem is a masterclass in building stress and letting it go. It’s meant to light up dance floors and capture people’s hearts. At the start of the track, there is an eerie, hypnotic pull. Suspenseful spoken-word sounds ripple through the mix, drawing people into its dark depths. After a while, loud, zippy basslines come in like a storm breaking, putting energy through every beat like shockwaves.
As the song goes on, rattling synth oscillations go up and down, making a soundscape that is hypnotic and almost trance-inducing. You can’t get away from the deep, pulsing groove—it takes you on a trip through sound that is both euphoric and primal. “Portrait” is more than just a song; it’s a peak in feeling, a rush of adrenaline, and a hypnotic escape all at the same time.
MORTEN shows once more why he’s a big deal in electronic music by making a track that is both scary and exciting. Put your eyes closed, turn the sound up, and let it take over.
After his previous label debut “Hollow” with ARTBAT, which has 13.3M streams and radio backing from BPM, NRJ, KISS FM (AUS), WZFL, and 538 Dance, this track comes next. MORTEN will be on tour soon at EDC Las Vegas, EDC Korea, A Day in the Park, Escapade Festival, Electric Mountain, and as support for ARTBAT at their Upperground performance at Brooklyn Mirage.
Because he came up with the idea for “future rave,” MORTEN has turned the dance music scene on its head by combining underground elements with mainstage stopping power. “Kill The Vibe” (with David Guetta), “The Future is Now / The Truth” (with David Guetta), “Control,” and “Good God” are some of MORTEN’s most popular new songs.
MORTEN “Portrait” will be out on Insomniac Records on March 28.

Ultra Miami 2025 was a wild ride—epic beats, insane visuals, and a thunderstorm that couldn’t kill the vibe. From March 28-30, thousands of fans turned Bayfront Park into one massive dance floor, and when the rain poured down, the crowd danced harder. Nothing stops Ultra. Nothing.
Sets that Shook the City
The lineup this year was completely packed with incredible artists and unforgettable sets, but I did have a few personal favorites: Axwell, Chase & Status, Hardwell, Martin Garrix, and Armin van Buuren b2b Oliver Heldens b2b Maddix.
Axwell laid down some of the most infectious grooves, Chase & Status set the stage on fire-literally- and Hardwell was an absolute powerhouse. Martin Garrix proved once again why he deserved to close down the festival, delivering massive drops and ending the set with his own live vocals. The real showstopper though? The was the B3B madness of Armin van Buuren b2b Oliver Heldens b2b Maddix—a set full of surprises that had everyone dancing non-stop.
Rain Couldn’t Stop the Rave
While the festival saw mostly nice Miami weather, Sunday brought an unexpected challenge—a heavy rainstorm that threatened to disrupt the final night of the festival. However, Ultra’s production team quickly adjusted, making sure that the show went on with minimal interruptions. While some sets faced temporary delays, the energy never wavered as fans embraced the rain, turning the downpour into yet another unforgettable Ultra moment.
Back to Bayfront in 2026
All in all- Ultra Music Festival 2025 was pure chaos in the best way possible. From iconic sets to moments that I certainly won’t forget, this year’s festival was one for the books. See you next year at Bayfront Park—same great energy, and hopefully a different weather forecast.

Grammy-winning live electronic trio RÜFÜS DU SOL announced Inhale / Exhale Remixed, the official remix package for their acclaimed album Inhale / Exhale, set to arrive on May 2. Offering a glimpse into the upcoming 15-track remix collection, Adriatique’s remix of ‘In the Moment‘ is out now via Rose Avenue/Reprise Records.
A celebration of their deep-rooted connection to clubland and undeniable influence in the electronic space, Inhale / Exhale Remixed further expands on the band’s legacy as both creators and tastemakers. Curated by the trio, Inhale / Exhale Remixed will feature Turkish-Italian underground favorite Carlita, Haitian house producer Francis Mercier, Peruvian DJ Sofia Kourtesis, Swiss heavyhitter Andrea Oliva, German deep house artist Emanuel Satie, melodic innovator Enamour, Afro-tech powerhouse Nitefreak, and more alongside Adriatique’s ‘In The Moment’ remix.
Leading Inhale / Exhale Remixed, Adriatique envelope ‘In the Moment’ in their signature sound, lifting RÜFÜS DU SOL’ soft original with ethereal synthwork and driving basslines to cadence the energy of the dancefloor. RÜFÜS and Adriatique have a collaborative history, starting when the Swiss duo’s remix of ‘On My Knees’ launched the band’s Surrender (Remixes) in 2022. The following year, RÜFÜS offered their take on Adriatique and WhoMadeWho’s Rose Avenue-released single ‘Miracle’. The ‘In The Moment’ remix sees the pairing come full circle with a rework that embodies the after-hours pulse of Inhale / Exhale Remixed. 
Since the release of their widely celebrated fifth studio album last October, RÜFÜS DU SOL have cemented their status as one of the most successful live electronic acts in the world. They’ve broken personal records, like debuting on the Billboard 200 chart and earning their first No.1 on dance radio with ‘Music is Better’. Their ongoing Inhale / Exhale World Tour is the biggest-selling single artist electronic music tour of all time, a new milestone for the band. 
The tour kicked off last month in South America with headline stops and performances at Lollapalooza Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. Adriatique’s ‘In the Moment’ remix arrives just in time for the North American leg of the tour, which will start with a trio of sold out shows in Texas. The tour will continue into the summer for a nearly sold out run with stops in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, and Toronto, along with festival appearances at Lollapalooza and Up In The Sky.
Stream Adriatique’s ‘In The Moment’ remix below and on all platforms and pre-order Inhale / Exhale Remixed. 
Stay tuned for more news!
